I am a three batch veteran in all grain. I have questions about the type of water to use. I know that I should get a water report, but have not. I have city water. I also do not want to buy a water filtration system either.
I am basing this question on the taste alone. I brewed a pale ale recipe kit on two different occasions. I used the same process on both of them, and the only thing that is different is the yeast and water.
The first one I used regular tap water with safale S04. The second time I used walmart spring water with wyeast 1056. The two beers in my opinion tasted very similiar. I thought they were both tasty.
$8 in spring water or tap water? If the water tastes ok, it will make good beer?
Thanks again. Any comment is appreciated.
